yes, it is the same (I ordered the deal from HT in the campaign before last).

i've done wuite well myself out of that offer - i do 1/2 customers on current brochure and 1/2 on previous brochure - it means I can mix n match to get the best prices and offers - I've got myself 2 bonuses from people ordering anew from C3 brochure which I've ordered from C4.

Thanks Elliebee... I'm just trying to keep up with it all!! I'm currently on brochure 4 for my first round, but SL dropping off brochure 6 in a couple of days and then said I have to order brochure 7 with this order?? Don't know when I'll be dropping which off... I'll have a chat with her when I see her next. She seems quite good actually.

Woohoo

Done really well for my 2nd order. Just put in an order for £360 plus what I ordered on top. I worked for it of course. Just goes to show if you try hard enough.

Mind you the street I have been given, one of the houses a rep lives at. I was told she only does friends and family by my am and not to put a book through her door. When I did the street I forgot which house it was and put a book through by mistake. When I came to collect the book she said that a couple of lads used to do it, and she had asked the am to let her know when they give up and she will take it over. So you can imagine she was not best pleased when I put a book through her door. Also last night when I was collecting books a lady said if you want to know why you not getting any orders its because we already have a rep in the street. I couldn't bring myself to tell her "well actually I'm doing quite well and got lots of orders" so iI just said yes I know. When I got home I thought why do ams not follow up with their reps? I don't know but I also do Betterware and never get anything like that over territory. We are given a territory and that's it. Everyone knows their territory and co-ordinators know which territory is already taken or if someone wants to do more they let them know which streets are free and which are not. So why can't Avon be the same??

I got mine!! I wonder if you guys are in later mailplans and they just ran out by then? I am in mailplan F.

Hi Kat

It seems if you are in the first half of the mailplan you get all the goodies, but if you are in the second half they are all gone by the time you order. What is going on??

oohh i didn't know you had to order the freebies, DUH!!!! At least I can add them tonight!!!

At least i know before my order goes in. I am only on c4 but this is the one where peopel can order free samples of the new solutions range.

Well I added one onto every order so I can give them out. When I went to view my order they were all there, but when I went to view subtotal there was only one, Does that mean I wont get them all?? They were not even under the samples section. They are still in the view my order section, about 15 of them and most people who ordered asked for one.

I also ordered about 15 samples for customers and viewed my order and they are there but not ticked or anything so it seems I won't be getting them either. Why do Avon not make sure they got enough for everyone. It seems they always run out when it comes to the later mailplans.

I've had this happen to me twice! Both times i got given a hard time by the other reps SL. I've now been given another territory but am reluctant to canvass it in case it happens again (especially as i know that there was a rep there at Xmas).

I got one of the three types - the other two types are 'out of stock & will be delivered when available'. I only got two actual orders but ordered one per customer but of course the ones that are ordered are not the ones in stock. :rolleyes:

i got 15 samples of the dull skin samples... (ones id picked for customers who hadnt noticed) but none the anti ageing or dry skin ones!Which were the ones my customers who had seen the offer had actually ordered!!



Just wanted to ask you experianced reps a question - how do you "demonstrate" the products to people on doorsteps?

So far ive only shown my mum new products etc but id like to know how to approach "territory" customers.

Oh well guess will have to wait and see what happens!! Seems like there are too many indians and not enough chiefs lol.
